Julianne Moore, Eva Longoria and Paris Hilton at the 67th annual Cannes Film Festival.
New Delhi:
The good news is that neither Aishwarya Rai Bachchan nor Mallika Sherawat made it to this list. The bad news is that many formerly well-dressed celebrities did.
Here are eight 'what-were-they-thinking' dresses from the Cannes Film Festival this year:
Eva Longoria in slashed Vionnet. The colour washed her out, the draping bunched around her tummy, the turtleneck looked like it was strangling her. She managed a faint, pained smile.
Marion Cotillard in white mullet-style Dior. The boxy cut fell shapelessly around her slim figure, further undone by the black booties. Brave but misguided.
Alessandra Ambrosio in asymmetrical white Atelier Versace. Supermodels usually make the ugliest dresses look good. Not this supermodel, not this dress.
Irina Shayk in pale pink Versace. Ditto. Not even a supermodel body can justify a dress this hideous.
Christina Hendricks in black Alberta Ferretti. The flame-haired Mad Men star usually knows what works on her voluptuous silhouette. This Gothic horror isn't one of her better looks.
Paris Hilton in really strange Rocky Gathercole. A sheer jeweled bodice morphing into a flouncy black and white striped skirt - sounds good on paper, looks ugly in real life.
Julianne Moore in maroon, black and white Louis Vuitton. If the leather bodice had been less ill-fitting and less at odds with the monochrome skirt, Julianne would have been on the best dressed lists as she usually is.
Victoria Bonya in black and nude lace. This dress will ensure the Russian TV personality won't be invited back to the French Riviera.
